RoboHelp/RoboPDF freezes when trying to generate PDF printed documentation
Hi,
I am using RoboHelp HTML X5.0.2 build 801 with Win2k and Word
2000. Whenever I try to generate printed documentation in PDF
format RoboHelp freezes and doesn't respond until I kill the
program. I also tried first generating the printed documentation in
MS Word .doc format and then tried to generate the PDF from within
Word. RoboPDF kicks in this time and freezes along with MS Word.
Any ideas why this is happening?
It works on anything we throw at it. You could try the
supplied sample projects.
Have you tried creating a document directly in Word and
creating a PDF from that?
Where is you normal template stored? Locally?
Take a look at Snippet 33 on my site. You should be getting
an error message if that is the problem but it might be worth
checking the path anyway.

If that does not fix it, email me offline.

RoboHelp 8 Freezes When Trying to Use Any Open Dialog
The title pretty well says it all. RoboHelp freezes when I try to use Open... from the Starter screen or File>Open or any other control that accesses the open dialog (i.e., the open/explore button on the Content Settings tab in the FrameMaker Document Settings dialog). I have to end the process in the Task Manager and restart RoboHelp. (Fortunately, the Recent Projects links work – except for Open..., of course.)
I discovered this when I had to restore links to moved FrameMaker documents. My installation is TCS2 running on Windows 7 32-bit; all updates to all TCS2 components and Windows 7 have been installed.
I tried an in-place reinstall of RoboHelp, but that didn't make any difference.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
JohnHi John and welcome to the RH community.
I'd check that you have both of the 8.0.1 and 8.0.2 updates installed. Also ensure your RH source files are not located on a network drive. Bare in mind that whilst some users manage to run RH under Windows 7, others have reported problems. You should also note that Windows 7 is not an officially supported platform for RH usage.

We have done toleration testing on firefox version 5 thru 6 and haven't got an issue with our website generating pdf files for our users. One of our users upgraded to firefox version 7.0.1 and they tried to generate a pdf report, now a screen pops up with Corrupted Content Error The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because an error in the data transmission was detected. I recreated this issue on my pc yesterday by installing firefox 7.0.1. Any hints as to what I need to look at would help. Cannot provide the url because it is a secure website for law enforcement. Thanks.
You can turn off compatibility checking, but more and more of the Google Toolbar will not work. Google is no longer supporting the Google Toolbar so you should use the alternatives.

System-config-printer-gnome freezes when trying to "Add" a printer
I have the same issue that was discussed in the thread system-config-printer-gnome utility freezes when "adding" printer. Specifically, when I try to add a printer using system-config-printer gui, the window freezes and throws back the following code:
mechoid9@ordinateur:~$ system-config-printer
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/system-config-printer/asyncipp.py", line 196, in send_reply
handler (self._conn, result)

File "/usr/share/system-config-printer/system-config-printer.py", line 5228, in add_devices
physdev = model.get_value (iter, 1)
TypeError: iter must be a GtkTreeIter
The solution mentioned was to use the CUPS web interface. This lets me add a printer (which is part of the solution), this is not the complete solution. I've used the utility before, and I'm comfortable with it, and I think that I should be able to use the gnome utility to add the printer if everything on my system is up to date (which it is, as of this posting). I would like to know why it doesn't work anymore (and I'm of the impression that it has something to do with how I've installed python on my system).
I've googled the issue, and perhaps I didn't look around thoroughly enough, but I couldn't find a solution. So if somebody knows where to look I'd be glad to look there.I have the same problem. I noticed that it occured only after installing the following driver packages.
hpoj-0.91-16 hplip-3.11.3-1 net-snmp-5.6.1-1 foomatic-db-engine-4.0.6_20101215-1 foomatic-db-4.0.6_20101215-1
I did a workaround by installing the printer using the webinterface, removing the drivers again, setting the samba login details and then reinstalling the drivers.
But this problem should really be fixed. -
Robohelp 7 Freezes When Trying to Import Anything
When I try to import anything into RoboHelp 7, it freezes. I
go to File > Import and select any option. The result is that
the entire application freezes until I click Escape.
The only thing I've been trying to import is Captivate
movies. The obvious workaround is to initiate movies from within
RoboHelp, which I've been doing. Still, I would like it if I could
import things ...
I'm on XP and haven't done anything usual.I found out what the problem was. I configured dual monitor
display for my laptop (so I could drag items between my laptop
monitor and a desktop monitor). In dual monitor mode, the Import
dialog box appears on the second monitor (because at some point, I
imagine I dragged it there).
When I switched back to single monitor mode, RoboHelp still
thought I was in dual monitor mode and it put the dialog box on the
other (blank or nonexistent) screen. Hence when I tried to import
something, it seemed to freeze because it wouldn't let me push any
other buttons until I made a selection on the dialog box I couldn't
access.
Here's the fix: Set up dual monitor mode again with two
monitors. In RoboHelp, go to File > Import to prompt the dialog
box. Drag the dialog back onto the same monitor as the application.
Now switch back to single monitor mode and go to File > Import
again. The application should remember to put the dialog box in the
correct place, and it no longer freezes. -
Robohelp 7 freezes when trying to insert an image
Not sure how this happened, but now I can't insert images
into my RoboHelp 7 project. Now when I attempt to go to Insert >
Image and then click the folder to browse for an image to insert,
Robohelp freezes until I hit the escape button. This is surely a
bug. I'm on Windows XP.
As a workaround, I have to drag the images into the project
folder manually and then select them from the list or type their
names in the field.It sounds like the Insert Image dialog box has somehow fallen off the edge of your screen (Esc is closing the dialog box, returning focus to the main RoboHelp window). Try this:
1. Press Alt, Spacebar, M
2. Press any arrow key.
3. Waggle the mouse madly until the dialog box appears on your screen.
4. Click to drop the screen where you want it. -
Access denied when trying to use PDF printer as normal user
I have Acrobat 8 professional installed on a computer running Windows XP SP3. When i try to print a document to pdf from any program as Administrator it performs just fine. When i log on as a normal, restricted, user i get the window popup asking for a file name and location and whereever i try to save a file i get "access denied" error.
Users have right to write and modify in all of the folders i've tried to save to (desktop, my documents, custom made folders), but i think the problem is with the temp file being written to some system folder where restricted users don't have permission to write. Did anyone encounter a similar problem, and how did you solve it? What directories do the normal users need access to in order to perform printing.
Thank YouThe forum added some nice links and i found my answer here http://forums.adobe.com/message/1179199#1179199 - changed the registry key permissions and it's working like a charm. Thank you.

Safari 5.0.5 freezes & crashes when trying to view pdf
For some reason safari 5.0.5 freezes & crashes when trying to view pdf
Any ideas how to fix this issue?Hi
that's usually due to a plug-in over-riding Safari's built-in pdf support.
Quit any browsers & remove any 'pdf...' plugins from either of these folders

Creative Zen Vision 30Gb Stuck in Recovery Mode, Freezes when trying to deal with Firmware
My Zen Vision is stuck in Recovery Mode. The PC recognizes it but it comes up as 50mb Storage Media. When you touch Reload Firmware or Format All, it freezes and you have to pull the battery out to shut it off. I don't know what to do. Charges fine, never said anything about HARDWARE issues, just can't get it to not freeze when trying to load firmware back onto it.
I did the same thing, my unit was working perfectly.
I just read that these players have a laptop 2.5 hard dri've installed in the unit. If this is true, the next chance I get, I will take my unit apart (40 gig nomad zen xtra) and see if I can reinstall the firmware directly. It's probably what they do at the repair sho
ps.

Ipod nano 5th generation freezes when trying to play a song or video
Within the last couple of day my ipod nano 5th generation started freezing whenever i tryed to play a song. Oly way i could turn it off was by resetting it, however it did not fix the problem and still freezes whenever i try to play a song. I have even restored it to factory setting and it does the exact same thing. I don't understand why it does this, does anyone know why it freezes and won't stop? i don't have any warrenty on it and want to know if it is fixable, because it just randomly started freezing when trying to play music. If any one knows why it would be appriacted to know.
Does this happen with any song or video you play? If so, then my best guess would be a hardware issue since a restore to factory settings did not resolve it.

Error when trying to generate a report using BEX Quesry in Crystal Reoprts
HI Experts,
As per the SAP NOTE we did FP 2.6 Unicode Transports and then SP3 transports. Transports are imported with min Errors.
Now *when am trying to generate a report using BEX Quesry in Crystal Reoprts* am getting error
"Database Connector Error: BAPI Error #:0
Error occurred when starting the parser: timeout during allocate /CPIC-CALL: 'ThSAPCMRCV' "
*When trying to Generate using OLAP CUBE Report Wizard. AM getting Error*
" READING OLAP META DATA FAILED."
Thanks,
BharathThis is not really the correct forum to be posting Reports issues. However, if I were to guess, your issue is likely related to the known issues related to installing FMw11R1 on machines which had IPv6 enabled. In most cases, disabling IPv6 would correct the problem, however some issues were not resolved even after disabling IPv6 post-install. I would recommend patching to WLS 10.3.6 and FMw 11.1.1.6 as these versions include fixes for all of those issues as far as I recall.
Consider referring to this MyOracleSupport document if you have access:
Steps to Maintain Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) (Doc ID 1073776.1) -
Error message when trying to delete pdf in 10.1
With 10.0.03 everything in Acrobat worked fine. In 10.1 I get an error when trying to delete pdf files I've recently worked on. The message says:
"Are you sure you want to move this file to the Recycle Bin? Then "file name".pdf, Type: Adobe Acrobat Document, Size: 153 KB, Date modified: 6/18/2011 3:28 PM.
Other times the message is:
"The action can not be completed because the file is open in Acrobat.exe. Choose file again. Then "file name".pdf, Type: Adobe Acrobat Document, Size: 153 KB, Date modified: 6/18/2011 3:28 PM. Try Again"
This happens everytime I try to either delete the file using a menu to delete or drag the file to the Recycle Bin by hand.
Only way to get out of the loop is to log out then log in. This only started happening after updating to 10.1.
Anyone else see this problem and know how to fix it?Just a suggestion but I have found on WIn 7 that showing a pdf in the
Preview view can make win think the file is open and locked for editing. The
little icon on the taskbar makes it easier to turn the preview on and off. I
always check my open explorer windows now when I get messages like that and
it usually clears it up. Hope it works foryou.

[ModifyPNRWSContract.wsdl]Hi Naichen,
I was able to successfully run both the autotype and clientgen Ant task, on the
WSDL you provided. The code behind those Ant tasks are pretty much what the WebLogic
Web Services test page run. Are you using WLS 8.1 SP2? If not, you might want
to try with that version.

IPhoto freezing when trying to import photos from iPhone
iPhoto has started freezing when trying to import photos from an iPhone. The device is recognised but just get "loading . . . " message with no photos appearing. Has anyone else seen this?
There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.
